  • How important is this really? Is this what I should do for all sprinting?

  • @fir3share78 It is important, but it is something that should happen automatically. If it does not happen then you have to look into your backside actions.

  • At the begining i was getting the idea that by having the high knee drive, you meant to almost come up off the ground higher with each step. But the idea i got is that you were saying to have flexible hips on the way up and sink ur hips on the way down. The high knee drive just enables ur legs to help do so and gets the hips involved. Is this true?

  • The hip involvement brings the knees high.

    Work the hips, 100 percent correct

  • so are we trying to lift the foot to the glutes or anything like that by moving the leg and foot ourselves or is it supposed to happen automaticly?

  • will happen automatically

see all
